How to Make Tomato Sauce from Fresh Tomatoes

Take a trip with us to the Union Square Farmers Market to seek out fresh tomatoes, then turn them into sauce.

When your mom asks you why you're making tomato sauce at 3 am: "2:43"

I tried this recipe and this guy is not joking on the tomato paste. The paste is incredibly sweet and it was a fascinating find!

When this video was uploaded, I was growing 6 varieties of tomatoes (around 100 plants total). We put up 65 quarts of sauce using this as a guide and have been eating on it since. Best sauce ever! This year we're growing 260 plants. Oh yeah! Instead of the food mill, we used a professional Vitamix.

I saw this video about a year ago. I was looking for a nice tomato sauce for my homemade pizza. I've been making it ever since.This tomato sauce has reallyy improved it!! I love it!!

Gonna take a year off work to try and make this

That is a proper tomato sauce. Nothing like farm fresh produce to make great dishes and sauces.

I have been making this sauce for three years running, it’s wonderful I refuse to use store bought tomato sauce now. I make the base sauce vacuum seal and freeze it I then can the paste. and make tomato ice cubes for the juice. Now people rave about my pasta sauce. The sauce is work but once you taste it you know why it’s serious eats.
Thank you for sharing the recipe. Steve

Perhaps one of the finest and most significant cooking-oriented videos on YouTube. Nothing beats a perfectly-executed tomato sauce. Nicely done, folks.

This has been my go to recipe for the last year and I promise everyone - he is not joking when he says this is THE best way to make it!

Found this video back at the end of spring this year. My dad always plants a bunch of Roma and cherry tomatoes. Tried this method to make sauce and it is superb. As stated in the video it's great with spaghetti. I also used it on chicken parm, eggplant parm and baked ziti. This sauce is incredible

I found this video both entertaining and informative. Thank you! I love when someone goes to the nth degree to attain perfection!

Brilliant. I've considered making something like this, and I'm glad to see that somebody's actually done it. Looks awesome.

Seriously my favourite way of making tomato sauce, the complexity of flavour from a simple tomato sauce is just amazing.

[SGsidekick]

I made this and wow. Different from using canned products, for sure! I mean, I have always made a sauce from canned tomatoes, not just buying the sauce itself. Reducing the plum tomatoes into a paste and adding made a huge difference. Gotta make this again!

This is amazing! I've been looking for a tomato sauce recipe made of fresh tomatoes and I finally found it!

I absolutely adore your work, the whole way you approach the subject of the vegetable offering through to selection, preparation and final blend. You know your craft and you’re an artist

I haven't bought tomato sauce in years... I make like 50 vases in the summer and use them the whole year

[leonardjavier]

This seems like the best tomato sauce recipe I've seen! I'll try it soon with our freshly harvested tomatoes.

This is brilliant! Bookmarking this, because this is exactly how I want to process my garden tomatoes this year. Thanks! :)
